i5 6600k
RX 480
16GB DDR4 2400

to

Ryzen 7 3800x
5700XT
32GB DDR4 3600

The difference is absolutely remarkable with some games doubling in performance. I suspect that the biggest thing holding me back before was the 6600. Going from 4 cores to 8 is insane, let alone the hyperthreading. That RX 480 could still pack a respectable punch though. Some games surprised me and didn't perform much better (escape from tarkov, warhammer 2) but others doubled or tripled. I guess it depends on multi-threaded optimization.

I survived with 16GB of 2400 mentioned above for years. I never once had an issue where my RAM itself was causing crashes or stuttering from max capacity, but I only gamed at 1080p then. At 1440p now, I recommend 32GB. Some games hit around 19-21.

Did you have to do a fresh install of your os?

Yeah, I had to do a clean reinstall via a USB stick of Windows 10.
